He said it was a protest vote over revenue sharing (between the teams, not the owners/players), which is NOT what the true disconnect was during the negotiations when he tweeted that he wasn’t the one to complain to about the season being delayed. So there is no contradiction like the one you’re implying. The contradiction is more like the MJ’s labor stance one: when Mickey was “small market”, he’d have been all for revenue sharing, but while he has one of the most marketable teams, he’s all against it. That’s exactly like MJ having the principled and correct position during labor negotiations when he was a player, then turning around and being a dick when it is in his own financial interests now.
